Abstract

Understanding the social impact of advanced access technologies and witnessing that applications are increasingly based on content provided by end users, we take a look at next-generation EPON networks and elaborate on their suitability to efficiently support online gaming and P2P file sharing applications by means of evolutionary WDM and long-reach PON upgrades. We examine a scalable all-optical integration of WDM EPONs, which exploits the unique traffic characteristics of P2P file sharing and online gaming applications, and supports them with an incremental add-on service with fallback option.
